Default New Car New to the Club

Hello, I am new to the club. I purchased my first Lexus last saturday night. I have always wanted a IS300 and now I am the proud owner of an 04 IS300 Sportdesign. She is a real beauty.

I have not decided about any mods yet. I like the clean look of the stock IS. I did order new center caps because the current center caps are really worn out. I am also going to re-tint the windows b/c the passenger side front window has a nice scratch in it. The muscle car you see is my 1968 Plymouth Road Runner. She is one bad machine.

I know this is a Lexus forum but we are all car guys so I'll put up a few pics of the Road Runner that sits beside the Lexus.

Thanks for showing off the road runner. I like old mopar muscle, especially the1970 Cuda. So you got a nice Is300 for a daily driver and a musclecar for the weekends, best of both worlds.

Love the car and nice sportcross wheels. I also love your full leather interior, I had the Alcantera and it was hard to clean. I loved my gen one and drove it all over the country.
